Today is our 18th birthday and wow, have things changed! Just have a look at these images.
The Two Oceans Aquarium would like to thank everyone who has made the past 18 years such an incredible experience. The support of our owners, our partners, our staff and volunteers, our members, and every single visitor who has walked through our doors has enabled the Aquarium to grow from strength to strength, and to strive towards its vision of fostering a love and respect for, and an understanding of, our oceans in order to inspire support for their future well-being
Here’s to the next 18 years – watch this space as the Aquarium enters the next phase of its dynamic life!
Some message from staff who’ve had a long, long history with the Aquarium:
Taken from my favourite movie: Patrick Swayze had the time of his life in the movie “Dirty Dancing”. I am still having the time of my life, 18 wonderful years later. Thank you, Two Oceans Aquarium – Jacinta Subjee
It has been quite a journey over the last 18 years. As Lex Fernhead (our previous MD) advised me to do, I’ve learned to sleep faster. Congratulations Two Oceans and here’s to the next 18 years! – Vincent Calder
The first time I walked into the Two Oceans Aquarium, I walked on to a building site and I was in heaven! Eighteen years later, I’ve gone from volunteering to working at the place I love. Thank you Two Oceans for giving me the opportunity to live my dream. – Renée Leeuwner
Remember fondly saying fairly often: “We can’t do it, but we will!” Eighteen years later, and the Aquarium is about to take the leap into its adulthood with fantastic new development plans, and I am so fortunate to be part of it again. – Maryke Musson
